How to invest in low-volatility ETFs

How do I invest in the low volatility factor?

There are various possible explanations for this: For example, shares with low volatility may be perceived as less rewarding by investors as they are associated with less risk. Another theory suggests that investors generally overestimate their ability to forecast.
